Second edition (per special statement upon page 6). 224 pages. Hardcover: H 28.75cm x L 28.75cm. Dust jacket rubbed; light bumping along top edge; short 1cm closed tear at spine head. Blue boards with vibrant gilt stamping to spine. Patch of surface peeling and some residue from removed gift sticker on front free endpaper; non-a…uthorial green ink Christmas gift inscription on title page. Interior pages are otherwise clean. Binding is firm. A very good- copy in a very good- dust jacket. Catalogue of the Jack Warner-Gulf States Paper Corporation-The Westervelt Company collection exhibited at the Westervelt-Warner Museum of American Art in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. As ownership of the paintings and other objects was split among Gulf States/Westervelt and The Warner Foundation as well as some being the direct property of retired CEO and chairman Jack Warner, a power struggle regarding the museum's future ensued between the retired chairman and the corporate board as art prices soared in the late-2000s. Thus, as it played out, in 2011 The Westervelt Company consigned 33 of the museum's paintings to Christie's so that masterworks including Asher B. Durand's "Progress-The Advance of Civilization," Childe Hassam's "Celia Thaxter's Garden," Frederick Carl Frieseke's "Sunspots," Albert Bierstadt's "Seal Rock, California," Andrew Wyeth's "Silver Cove," Frederic Edwin Church's "Above the Clouds at Sunrise" (which illustrates the book's dust jacket), and Thomas Hart Benton's "Shipping Out" were sold via private sale or auction. The financial impact of the artwork was immediate; Durand's "Progress" allegedly sold for $40 million (the painting was anonymously gifted to the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts in December 2018); the Benton painting sold for twice the high estimate at $1,025,000. The corporate holdings that survived the museum dissolution were either exhibited at its successive institution, the short-lived Tuscaloosa Museum of Art (closed in 2018) or retired to Gulf States offices. The book is a testimony to Jack Warner's legendry discerning eye and prescient recognition American fine and decorative arts highpoints most of them slyly acquired relatively cheaply from the 1950s through the 1980s when the market still strongly favored European objects. Please note that this large book has an approximate shipping weight of 5 pounds (2.26 kg) and will require additional postage for any postal class other than domestic Media Mail. {ArtShelf_#1} ISBN 9781580930987.
